Nordberg HP Series Cone Crushers

 High Performance for Higher Profitability
For high productivity, low operating and wear costs,
long service life, and high product yield with desired
fines, there’s no better choice than a cone crusher. And
Metso Minerals leads this market with its high-
performance HP Series cone crushers for the aggregate
and mining markets.
Nordberg HP (High Performance) Series cone crushers
feature a unique combination of crusher speed, throw, and
cavity design. This combination has proved revolutionary in
providing higher capacity and superior product quality, and
in providing a wider range of application suitability. From
lime-stone to taconite, from ballast production to
manufactured sand, and from small portable plants, HP
cone crushers provide unbeatable performance in
secondary, tertiary, and quaternary applications.
A history of quality
Nordberg HP cone crushers are built on the success of our
2
70+ years of Symons cone experience, and 20+ years of
Nordberg Omnicone experience.
The Symons cone is well known for its rugged construction
and application versatility. The Symons cone has set the
standard in the mining industry, where 24-hour, high-
reduction applications can destroy all but the most
ruggedly built machine.
The Nordberg Omnicone introduced many new innovations
to reduce maintenance and operating costs, and to provide
designed-in modern features such as hydraulic setting
adjustment, tramp release, and cavity clearing.
The field-proven HP series combines the best of these
technologies to provide the highest capacity, the best
product shape, the highest on-spec yield, easy automation,
and the greatest possible reliability and flexibility. All to
help you achieve the highest possible levels of profitability.

 Features & Benefits

Less downtime
Dual-acting hydraulic tramp release cylinders mean the HP
cone crushers can pass tramp iron that would stall many
competitors’ crushers.The large clearing stroke indepen-
dent of liner wear reduces the effort required to clear a
stalled crusher, reducing downtime and increasing
operator confidence.
Hydraulic motors rotate the bowl for fine control setting
adjustments that also rotate the bowl completely out of
the adjustment ring threads for liner changeout, greatly
simplifying liner change.
Advanced liner retention technology increase reliability:
Bowl retaining wedges engage a self-tightening helix on
the upper section of the bowl liner, while a self-tightening
lock-bolt retains the mantle.

Easy to maintain Release system Hydraulic adjustment

Bronze bushings used throughout provide superior load
capability in the high-shock, dusty crushing environment.
They’re low-cost, and easy to replace in the field with
normal tools. HP cone crushers are easy to disassemble. All
components are accessible from the top or the side. The
head and bowl can be removed without upsetting a bolted
interference fit.

Low maintenance costs

High performance non-contacting labyrinth seals provide
high reliability by keeping out dust without wearing out.
Their simple design means fewer moving parts come into
contact with the rock and dust.
Excellent wear protection of all crusher components –
including replaceable head ball, mainframe seat liners,
mainframe pin bushings, countershaft box frame ring,
counterweight guard, mainframe liners, and the dead-bed
feed hopper – keep maintenance costs to a minimum. Liners fixing
Application flexibility
HP cone crushers can be converted from the finest to the
coarsest cavity simply by replacing the mantle, bowl liner,
adapter ring, and wedge bolts.

Easy to operate
Using the hydraulic motor setting adjustment with the
adjustment under load capability makes it easy to balance
the crushing circuit and optimize crusher productivity. The
addition of a hydraulic motor position transducer system to
keep track of crusher setting is all that’s required to connect
the crusher to a plant DCS system for full automation
applications.
